Abstract
Due to the ever-increasing unregulated antibiotic use, there have been increased risks of antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections. Natural agents, their products, and derivatives have been used for centuries to cure a variety of ailments. In the present study, an attempt was made to explore the physiochemical properties of the CEO. GC-MS analysis was used to identify the volatile components present in the oil. Additionally, TGA and DSC analysis were carried out to understand the thermal properties of the oil. The oil was characterized by higher amounts of terpenoids. The essential oil has potent anticancer, cytotoxic, antimalarial, and anti-inflammatory activity. This study concludes that the Juniperus virginiana essential oil could be used as a therapeutic agent.
